Gabapentin withdrawls while preparing for neurology tests

I am stunned by the number of people here that gabapentin seems to provide relief. I have tried it three or four different times and am certain that it makes my PN much worse, so I have given up on that. TENS is the only way I have found to quell the hellish pain and sensations created by PN. I don't see a lot on these boards about TENS, could it be because it isn't a drug?

I tried Tens for 6 months with my neck pain, the wires and suction cups were a hassle. plus it did not work, the induced spasms was irritating. Then it’s maybe not mentioned because it’s not a drug tells me you think some people are just drug seekers. They are in a sense because they are looking for something that works. It’s frustrating when a doctor tells you this might help in 3 months and it doesn’t.
